Is There an Advantage for Women in Small Business? by Jorge Bell

If you are a woman thinking of going into business for herself, then you are on the right track toward success. Many women spend their entire lives, working for someone else and not enjoying a single day of it. It is the lucky ones who get to do what they want and work for themselves. Being one of the many women in small business is a great thing right now.

There are two huge advantages to being women in small business and they are both financial. The first one is that there are many small business grants that are available only to women and minorities. These grants, which are given out by both non-profit organizations and the government, are not loans, but money that doesn’t need to be paid back.

The other advantage is that many government organizations are required to make contracts to women-owned businesses. So, you will have an advantage over other businesses that are run by men. This doesn’t occur all over the country, but in many states it does.

There are obviously other advantages to being in business for yourself, such as being able to spend more time at home with the family (if your business is in the home), and making your own hours. Your taxes will be less, you will have more deductions, and you will also give your daughters the opportunity to see a woman-owned business in action.

All in all, now is a great time to be in business for yourself, and whether you are working out of the home or want to open up your own store or office, even in today’s economy, you can still do it. There are plenty of opportunities out there for you.
